Just bought a 2017 Fusion Energi last week. Things are going very well. Cold in the northeast but am getting 16-19 EV miles.

Was wondering about the "Gasoline Range" value. When I picked up the car with 20 miles on it the gasoline range read 271 miles with a full tank of gas. I was expecting something in the 500's. My last car calculated this dynamically based on average fuel use over some recent

time span multiplied by gallons in tank. So the Fusion must be doing something different.

I assume that when I fill up the tank (maybe never, ha ha) the value will change? Does anyone know exactly how Ford calculates the value.

It is exactly as you understand, if calculates based on recent average fuel economy. But if your car is new, there is no recent data in there except for a bunch of time sitting on the assembly line and some default programmed values that never seem to be very accurate. So wait until the second or third tank before that number more closely matches your reality.
